*** Best showed by the pissing match between the countess Du Barry and Marie Antoniette Antoinette (also the only time Oscar has to think it long enough that we immediately see what made her decide that way): at the start Oscar [[PassThePopcorn just wanted to enjoy the show]], and upon being forced to take sides she thought about the Du Barry being more powerful due being the king's lover, Marie Antoniette being the wife of the Dauphin (and thus both the future queen and, with the king's wife being long dead, the highest-ranking woman in the whole France), and the king already being rather old (he would live only two more years) before taking Marie Antoniette's side. After Marie Antoniette was forced to surrender and Du Barry [[RevengeByProxy tried to take revenge on Oscar by framing her mother for murder]], Oscar spelled it out loud to the countess, [[OhCrap causing her to realize she didn't think it though before engaging in a pissing match with the future queen]] and ''[[CrowningMomentOfAwesome getting away with holding her at swordpoint in her own apartments]]''.
